Abstract
An electricity storage system includes: a plurality of rechargeable batteries connected in parallel; and a control unit that controls the rechargeable batteries. The control unit detects a deactivation target rechargeable battery of which charge or discharge need to be deactivated, of the rechargeable batteries, electrically separates and deactivates the deactivation target rechargeable battery from a load in a case where a charging rate of the deactivation target rechargeable battery is lower than a predetermined charging rate, and performs control such that a temperature of the deactivated rechargeable battery is within a predetermined temperature range. In this manner, it is possible to disperse ions inside a battery such that it is possible to recover performance of the battery.
